🍍 Pineapple Quick Bread
Pineapple quick bread is a soft, moist, slightly sweet loaf made with crushed pineapple. It’s called quick bread because it uses baking powder instead of yeast, so it’s faster and easier to make. 🍞
🧾 Ingredients
- 1½ cups All-Purpose Flour
- ¾ cup Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 Egg
- ½ cup Butter (melted)
- 1 cup crushed Pineapple (with juice)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat the oven
- Heat oven to 175°C (350°F).
- Grease a loaf pan.
2. Mix dry ingredients
- In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. Mix wet ingredients
- In another bowl, whisk egg, melted butter, crushed pineapple, and vanilla.
4. Combine
- Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients.
- Stir gently until just combined.
5. Bake
- Pour batter into the loaf pan.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
6. Cool and serve
- Let the bread cool before slicing.
🍽️ Optional Add-Ins
- Walnut or Pecan for crunch
- Coconut flakes for tropical flavor
- A light Powdered Sugar glaze
✅ Tip:
Pineapple juice in the batter keeps the bread extra moist and naturally sweet.
